摘要:
Disclosed is a method for stimulating revascularization in a subject comprising the steps of: (a) administering erythropoietin to the subject; (b) collecting peripheral blood mononuclear cells from the subject; and (c) administering the collected peripheral blood mononuclear cells to a target site of the subject. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and particularly CD34-positive cells, are mobilized into the peripheral blood of a subject by the administration of erythropoietin to the subject. The method of the present invention is useful for the treatment of ischemic diseases, such as peripheral vascular disorder.

摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide an oxaliplatin-encapsulating liposome aqueous dispersion that has excellent long-term storage stability. The present invention provides an aqueous dispersion of liposomes encapsulating oxaliplatin, the oxaliplatin-encapsulating liposome aqueous dispersion containing 2-morpholinoethanesulfonic acid in an external aqueous phase.
摘要:
A novel type A botulinum toxin preparation is provided. A neuromuscular transmission blocking agent comprising as an active ingredient a highly purified type A botulinum toxin from Clostridium botulinum as infant botulism pathogen and a medicament for treating a disease with a muscle overactivity comprising as an active ingredient said toxin. In particular, the medicament of the present invention, as compared to the conventional known botulinum toxin preparations, has rapid efficacy of potential and is less diffusive and thus, having a broader safety margin, may be used as therapeutic medicament for decreasing local, muscle overactivity in a disease with a muscle overactivity.
摘要:
Provided is a novel cancer-treating agent which can be used as a novel choice for the treatment of cancer. Specifically provided are: a peptide that inhibits binding of ERAP1 polypeptide to PHB2 polypeptide, which comprises a binding site of the ERAP1 polypeptide to the PHB2 polypeptide, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the peptide. In addition, provided is a method for screening a drug candidate for treating and/or preventing cancer using inhibition of the binding of the ERAP1 polypeptide to PP1α polypeptide, PKA polypeptide or PKB polypeptide as an index.
摘要:
A method for sterilizing fruits and vegetables includes irradiating a surface of fruits and vegetables with UVA, while the surface of the fruits and vegetables is in contact with chlorine water containing sodium hypochlorite having a chlorine concentration of 5 ppm or more. According to the method for sterilizing fruits and vegetables, the fruits and vegetables can be quite efficiently sterilized by chlorine water having a quite low concentration, that is 5 ppm or more, slightly higher than that of tap water. Further, multiplication of bacteria in the sterilized fruits and vegetables can be effectively prevented, while a residual chlorine concentration in the sterilized fruits and vegetables is significantly reduced.

摘要:
Provided is a smoke detecting apparatus capable of detecting occurrence of smoke at high sensitivity while suppressing an effect of disturbance. The smoke detecting apparatus for detecting occurrence of smoke by subjecting an image captured by a monitoring camera to image processing includes: an image memory (10) for storing a plurality of images captured by the monitoring camera in a time series; and a smoke detection area selecting portion (20) for calculating a luminance histogram of the same pixel for each predetermined pixel a plurality of times in a past predetermined period based on the plurality of images stored in the image memory (10), detecting presence or absence of a luminance value that has been newly generated due to occurrence of one of an intrusive object and smoke based on the luminance histogram, and identifying candidate regions to be subjected to the image processing.
